Best value for money current account

5
The best current account for interest rates and cashback, with no fees! It’s limited to £1500, but that’s enough for day to day spending and the rest is in our savings account - it means we don’t lose interest on the money not in savings. We also got a switch bonus and nationwide do a regular fairer share payment to their customers. Reviewed on: 18th April 2026
